Foot Orthotics

Foot Orthotics

Foot Orthotics are custom-made shoe inserts that are designed to correct and eliminate biochemically related problems arising from structural imbalances in the foot. Abnormalities in the foot can result in ankle and knee pain, pelvic or hip pain, spinal pain and even headaches. Orthotics prevent foot misalignment, modify areas of weight-bearing within the foot, and are able to alter the way in which the bones move within their joints.

Orthotic services at PhysioCare Clinic Group consist of patient consultation, computerized Foot Scan and Gait Analysis, evaluation and treatment, which includes patient education and advice to maximize your rehabilitation potential, and of course, providing you with custom made orthotics manufactured based on your individual needs.

Digital Gait Analysis with pressure mapping technology allows us to view underlying problems with your foot function and gait-patterns that would otherwise be unseen by the naked eye. The Meta scan identifies the source or area causing the dysfunction. Proper biomechanical function begins at the feet, and eliminating problems starting here can often remedy pain in the back and neck. The technique of pressure mapping captures data from heel contact to toe off and indicates how the patient is walking, as well as how their feet are functioning. With this targeted information, a clear, focused decision can then be made as to the best course of action to cure the dysfunction.
